I can't tell what version of the sources you are trying to build, but
it doesn't look like the CVS, since 1997-to-2002.sml disappeared a
while back in favor of the update-basis script.  And I don't think its
the 20030716 sources, since 20030716 can bootstrap itself fine.

What version of the sources are you trying to build (and why not the
latest version)?
